bill: explain why that is so critical in an election that appears to be razor-tight, not just nationally but in these battleground states? >> well, enthusiasm is important because voting is a voluntary act and we've seen again and again that the side that can generate the most enthusiasm and get its supporters out to vote has an edge that is worth, 1%, 2%, or whatever, of the total vote. in a landslide year that doesn't make any difference. in an election that is as tight as, you know, today's 46-45 obama-romney race, obviously it could make all the difference. bill: michael, good to see you. michael barone, your analysis from washington to our viewers. do you have a question about this? foxnews.com /americasnewsroom. shut me an e-mail, hemme hemmer@foxnews.com or. bya because you asked. we have a great question about chemical call weapons in syria. we'll put that to peter brookes. jamie: that is quite a tease. check it out. how about drones in the sigh? how easy would it be for a terrorist to take one of those over? we'll take a look at that. apparently it is not that hard. we'll have a

bill tbil seems like it is razor tight there. steve brown, thank you. it will be a fascinating day throughout the day and in the evening. martha. martha: let's take a look at how we got here this morning, the official launch to recall governor scott walker goes back to november 15th, 2011. earlier that year, walker released his plan and it was designed to address the state's budget shortfall, and it included curbing union collective bargaining rights and also cutting -- getting people to contribute more to their health and pension benefits. so far the candidate and outside groups have spent $63 million on the recall effort, and steve brown just reported the mope continues to roll in. bill: now, when all the votes are counted, we should have an answer on what happens there in the badger state. but are the issues going way past wisconsin? the ripple effect in a moment that could go all the way to the general election in november. so we'll check that out. martha: how about this question this morning? is it time for a big new stimulus package, with unemploy

what does that tell you in an election that is expected to be by all accounts, razor tight. >> reporter: if you look at the way romney is doing with republicans, one of the things that we were hearing about romney was that he'd have trouble uniting his party because he was seen as insufficiently conservative by many in the base. he's up to 91% support among republicans. so he's doing very well with his base, and if you add the independents in you normally have an effective majority, and i think that is the simplest and easiest way to think about this election. you can do other analyses, bill, where you factor the hispanic vote and other ethic minority votes and so on and you come up with another way of looking at it. but i think if you win your base strongly, republicans, you win your party, and you win the independents you almost always within the election. bill: that goes to voter enthusiasm and turn out, the number of people who are actually going to do what they say they will do, when they are likely voter and that is cast a ballot. here is another thing on the economy. who does a b
